Im stuck on a Writing question and need an explanation.
Tufekci discusses ways in which digital modes of mass discourse” are a danger to “a healthy public sphere “despite, in fact because of, the greater freedoms of speech these digital platforms enable (Tufekci 2 ). Tuifekgi argues that censorship doesnt always mean silencing or limitingsomeone’s speech. In Fishers article, we see examples of students who are unable to speak outagainst their abuse in vanous ways, despite there being no legal or violent restriction on their freespeech. Using concepts and examples from Tufekci and Fisher, answer the following question:
How can authority constrain peoples voice without resorting to law or violence?
As you develop your argument, you should consider these guid ing questions:
What kinds of techniques can authorities employ to constrain or silence people?
What makes certain kinds of people vulnerable to these techniques? Are there methods ofresistance to these techniques? To what extent can vulnerable individuals make use of these methods?
Focus on your connective claims. You have more freedom to connect Tufekci and Fisher in your own ways in this essay, but that means that you are also more likely to just repeat Tufekci or Fishers claims instead of making your own. Find your position as a writer: how does what youwant to say differ from both Tufekci and Fishers perspectives?
